I have an antique...

I have an antique coal hod? It is from england decorative copper and black iron handle.

Expert's Assistant: Don't you just love the idea of finding something valuable in your attic? I do, but I think all I have up there is junk my brothers abandoned before they left home. Always a good idea to check things with the Antiques Appraiser, though. Tell us what else you do know and the Antiques Appraiser will be able to better assist you.

My husbands family lived in england and brought back a lot of antiques in 1950s. We have this coal hod, I think. We have no idea what its worth. I could send a photo?

I can send pictures of this coal hod. At least that's what we think it is. As I said before it was from England. My husbands family brought an enormous amount of antiques back in 1950s.

Hi, This is your answer, please read entirely. . The Antique Coal Hod/shuttle Copper and Wrought Iron, early 1900's Origin England, has an estimated value on the current market for an average of $375.00-450.00 if sold at an auction it would sell for a little less,at around $200.00-225.00, if this were sold in a High End Antique Shop in a larger city it would sell for $450.00 and up depending on the condition. If I were selling it I would list it for $450.00 .Keep in mind that not all estimated values are obtained, your geographic area plays a big role in what prices can be obtained. If you plan on selling this I would list this for sell on the internet where it will have the largest shopping market. There are some great sites you can sell from. .You can sell on Etsy, which is a great place to sell from, you list Vintage Items, they can stay until they sell. Much like having a little store online. There is also Amazon Market Place, and of course Ebay. You can also sell on Charish, where you consign items. All of these sites get you a lot of World Wide exposure and bring the best traffic. They are all great! All sites can be sold from with pick up only option. .If you sell to a dealer, antique shop or resell shop you can expect to get about 30-40% of what it is worth since they have to resell the item.. Please ask any question you might have about your answer before rating this.. It was a pleasure working for you. I would be happy to help you with any items in the future. .When you post a new question, please feel free to add "FOR GLENDA" at the beginning of your question so as to ensure that I will be the one who answers your question for you.
